It's discomforting to realize that the Maui Police Department is egoistically entrenched in trying to make an example of Brian Murphy and company for purely moral and political accolades - another marijuana feather in their already misshapen and outdated cap. It's an insult to American freedoms to keep up this charade against a useful and beneficial plant that has been in use by humanity for thousands of years. If you want to go after the real corruptors of youth and the public at-large, the focus should be on pharmaceutical corporations along with tobacco companies and makers and distributors of alcohol. These "legalized' institutions do more to subvert and cripple the future of civilization than pot smokers could ever envision. The real reason the establishment doesn't want you smoking pakalolo isn't because it's dangerous, as they falsely claim, it is because it opens the mind to new possibilities of peace for the collective residents of planet Earth. It shatters the barriers of truth and deception as defined by the powers that be. It exposes the real world for what it is; a train wreck waiting to happen with the power elite at the controls. Best to keep us in fear and wanting. That way we'll never question authority again. The police state has arrived in all it's ugly glory! Better keep it on the down-low or you too will face the wrath of inequality and judicial prudence. Ian Templar Olinda - --- MAP posted-by: Larry Seguin
